After Action Report
The Knicks handled the Mavericks 95-79. The Mavericks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Knicks. Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
